Would you judge me (a mom) for driving a restored muscle car around town (grocery, school pickup)?

Check out bringatrailer.com. I love to just scroll through and look at the cars I'll never buy.

I'd probably admire the car but then think 'her gas mileage must suck'.

How loud is the car?

Can I swap you with my wife.

My aunt was a huge car person. At 78 she got clocked doing 120 mph in a 65 zone.

When I was a kid I recall she has a pink 1959 Cadillac convertible and in the road to Robert Moses state park with top down and six kids in car no seat belts pinned speedometer half the trip. 120-130mph was crushing.

I think her fastest one was 140 mph Death Valley at 82. Cop let her go

Gotta judge something. Probably not the car though

- petty bish

I would judge you.

It’s trashy. Old macho cars are trash, and trashy people drive them. So that makes you trash.

Don’t want to be trash? Drive something appropriate.

Depends on the car! If you are talking about a 1980 something mustang, you will be judged. 1980 something Trans Am, same but fascinating to a degree. 80s or 90s Porsche kind of cheesy like mustang. Just depends what it is.

Yeah, will it have aftermarket exhaust and boomin system?

[Anonymous]

No. Not sure I’d notice and sure wouldn’t care.

Nope, I'd think you were awesome. I don't drive a mom car. I judge those driving mom cars, not fun cars.

I have a ‘69 442 that my DW takes out on occasion, so I say to the OP: “Go for it.”

Shhhh, we must never speak of those.

Nope, I'd think it was so cool!

I just inherited a 66 Ford convertible from my recently deceased father. It's badass and I plan to drive it as often as I can (without breaking the bank on fuel).

I would stare longily at you from behind the wheel of my chicken-nugget-scented Minivan of Despair.
